This rich and creamy chocolate hazelnut spread is a nourishing twist on a classic favourite. Packed with protein from Chief Dark Choc Collagen, heart-healthy fats from flaxseed oil, and natural sweetness from maple syrup or honey, it’s a deliciously wholesome way to indulge. Enjoy it spread on toast, swirled into oats, or straight from the jar—because who can resist a spoonful of chocolatey goodness?
¼ cup cold-pressed flaxseed oil [can sub for melted coconut oil]
¼ cup pure maple syrup [use raw honey if you have a sweet tooth]
2 cups roasted hazelnuts
A good pinch of sea salt
Directions
Add the roasted hazelnuts to a high-speed blender or food processor.
Blend on high until they break down into a smooth, buttery consistency, pausing to scrape down the sides as needed. This may take 5–10 minutes depending on your blender.
Once the hazelnut butter is smooth, add the Chief Dark Choc Collagen Protein, flaxseed oil (or melted coconut oil), maple syrup (or honey), and sea salt.
Blend again until everything is fully incorporated and the mixture reaches a creamy, spreadable texture. If the spread is too thick, add a small amount of extra oil (1 teaspoon at a time) to loosen it up.
If you'd like it sweeter, add a touch more maple syrup or honey and blend again.
Transfer the mixture to a clean jar and store it in the fridge for up to two weeks.
